Lt Gen Abhijit S Pendharkar, General Officer Commanding of Spear Corps, extended his heartfelt greetings to all ranks, veterans, Veer Naris, and families of the Judge Advocate General (JAG) Corps on the occasion of their 42nd Corps Day.
In his message, Lt Gen Pendharkar lauded the JAG Corps for their unwavering commitment to upholding the legal and ethical standards of the Indian Armed Forces.

He also recognised the sacrifices and contributions of veterans and Veer Naris—spouses of gallant officers—whose support has been integral to the functioning and morale of the Corps. The JAG Corps’ 42-year journey reflects its growth from a modest legal branch into a pivotal pillar of military jurisprudence, balancing operational demands with legal obligations.
The GOC encouraged all serving personnel to continue their dedication, professionalism, and ethical service in line with the high standards of the JAG Corps. The occasion also served as a reminder of the Corps’ enduring legacy in promoting fairness, justice, and legal excellence within the armed forces.
The 42nd Corps Day celebrations underscore the JAG Corps’ contribution to the Indian military’s operational and administrative framework, honouring both its past achievements and future responsibilities.
